Sunset - Grand Teton National Park

Schwabacher's Landing might not be the most representative location of Grand Teton, but it's the most beautiful place of the park in my opinion. It's photographers' paradise because standing at any spot along the river you can capture the Teton range, alpines, grassland and river in one image. With good luck, you will get nice reflection too!

 

We visited this place twice both at sunset. The first night's sunset was so so but the second one (in this image) was the best sunset I had ever seen so far (although I hadn't seen that many sunsets :)). Definitely well worth the visit and an hour wait!

 

I used two ND filters (5 stops) to darken the burning sky and one ND filter (1 stop) to darken the river to balance the exposure given the high dynamic range in the scene.
